Saturday 9: What Hurts the Most (2006)
Unfamiliar with this week’s tune? Hear it here.
1) What hurts Sam the most is her sole, since she just found that earring she thought was lost by stepping on it with her bare foot. How about you? Any aches and pains to report?
At the moment, both of my feet are in pain. Burning and nerve-twitching from neuropathy.
2) What’s the last thing you misplaced? Did you find it?
My blood pressure meter. Nope, it is still missing. I’ve searched everywhere for it. Finally had to borrow my brother’s meter.
3) Lead singer Gary LeVox sings that he’s not afraid to cry. When is the last time you shed a tear?
Tuesday night when I watched NCIS and had to say goodbye to the character Tony DiNozzo.
4) Gary auditioned for another country group, Little Big Town, but didn’t get in. Considering how successful Rascal Flatts has been, he’s probably not sorry. Tell us about something you thought you wanted, but later weren’t so sure.
This happens to me almost every time I want chocolate. I have a love/hate relationship with it. I love chocolate and crave it often, but after I eat it, I know my blood sugar will go sky-high and I will regret it. I’m sure this doesn’t really answer the question, but it’s all I’ve got.
5) The country group has their roots in Columbus, Ohio. What else is Ohio known for?
Botched election tallies? I really don’t know much about Ohio.
6) Lead guitarist Joe Don Rooney married model and former Miss Georgia, Tiffany Fallon. Many major pageants give prizes in the talent, congeniality and swimsuit competitions. Would you prefer to have exceptional skills, a great personality, or a terrific body?
Exceptional skills. Looks and personality are so over-rated.
7) 2006, the year this song was popular, was a very good one for tennis pro Roger Federer. He reached the finals in all four Grand Slam tournaments, and won three. What’s the last game you won? (Yes, Words with Friends counts.)
Rummy, a couple of months ago. As a general rule due to traumatic events regarding games, I rarely play them. Cards now and again, but that’s it.
8) Actor Tony Shalhoub won an Emmy in 2006 for his portrayal of detective Adrian Monk on Monk. Who’s your favorite TV detective?
Sherlock Holmes as portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch on the BBC show, Sherlock.
9) Random question … You’ve just won an all-expenses-paid trip but now you have to choose: Carnivale in Brazil, the Bordeaux Wine Festival in France, or the Running of the Bulls in Spain?
I don’t do carnivals and I think the running of the bulls is just madness, so I guess that leaves me with the Bordeaux Wine Festival in France. It’s a good thing I love wine.
I’m sorry that you’re dealing with neuropathy, too. My husband has diabetes and neuropathy causes him intense pain. I pray that you can find relief somehow.
Have a blessed week!
I chose the wine festival because I cannot stand bull fighting or the running of them or anything connected with it.
My favorite card game is cribbage. It’s one I can win!
I went to Carnivale in Barcelona, so since I’ve seen the freaky side of celebrating and been to Spain, I chose the wine trip to France. Cheers to us wineos!
*laughs* yay for us winos 😀 Thanks for stopping by hun!
I haven’t watched this season of NCIS – but just found out last night that it’s been canceled! I’ll miss DiNozzo too! Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sherlock is my favorite too!!!! Love him 🙂
NCIS has been renewed into 2018. Only Michael Weatherly is leaving.
Oh no, I don’t think the show has been cancelled… just Tony is gone… The actor, Michael, is starting a new show on CBS called Bull.. I saw a preview and it looks pretty interesting. Benedict is an amazing actor.. love love love him too 😀 thanks for stopping by Sherry!
I cried a lot when DiNozzo left, but I think they wrote him out perfectly. I read that Michael Weatherly is going to do a show (sit com? drama?) in the fall based on Dr. Phil. But yeah, I will miss Tony. I hate change!
Yeah… they did his character justice with the leaving aspect. ..his new show will be called Bull.. I saw a preview and it looks pretty good, so I will definitely be watching it… NCIS won’t be the same without him *sighs*
I’ve noticed that those blood pressure meters often raise my blood pressure without the help of the usual causes. At least for me.
Oh wow.. maybe it is the intensity of the pumping and the beeping.. that usually raises my heart rate.. lol. Thanks for stopping by Harriet 🙂
I used to love Rummy. Haven’t played it in years, though. Which reminds me, there used to be a Hearts game in Microsoft that had a good AI and always beat me. I wonder where it went.
Hmmm… I remember that game too. Come to think of it, I don’t remember seeing it on MS 7.
Ah, I miss DiNozzo already! And Senior. I hope they find a reason to bring Robert Wagner back, even without Tony.
So do I.. maybe he can come back and help work a case or at least give updates about Tony 🙂
